Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi Friends,

If i execute this command it comes back with 300 lines:

ipcs|grep cerebrus >>> i would like to clear the semaphores but ipcrm can remove one id at a time. is there a quicker way of removing semaphores maybe using awk?

Regards,

Hi,
Try this one
ipcs -s | awk '{print $2}' | xargs -o ipcrm

Thanks
